Iwill give you brainliest if you get it right! you will also get 10 points if you attempt!

abdul's average speed is 20 mph in heavy traffic, and his average speed is 50 mph in light traffic. if he was in heavy traffic for 1 hour and light traffic for 2 hours, how far did abdul travel?

choose one of the following answers and provide an explanation:

a. 140 miles
b. 120 miles
c. 30 miles
d. 70 miles

B. 120

Step-by-step explanation:

so his average speed is 20 mph in heavy traffic, and 50 mph in light traffic

in 1 hour of heavy traffic, he would have gone 20 miles because if his average speed is 20 mph (miles per hour) in heavy traffic, then in 1 hour he would have gone 20 miles

20(1) = 20

in 2 hours of light traffic, he would have gone 100 miles because if his average speed is 50 mph (miles per hour) in light traffic, then in 2 he would have gone 100 miles

50(2) = 100

in total, if you add the 20 and 100, you find out how far abdul traveled:

20 + 100 = 120

so in 1 hour of heavy traffic and 2 hours in light traffic, abdul would have traveled 120 miles

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.

hans did not square the 40-unit side; he merely multiplied it by 2.   incorrect.
